Services

Individual, Relationship and Family Counseling

 

We are available to take clients in person in office in Tucson, AZ for brief and ongoing therapy. Common issues we address are depression, anxiety, stress management, low self-esteem, grief and loss, PTSD, childhood traumas, substance abuse and co-occurring disorders, psychedelic assisted therapy, sexual orientation and gender identity exploration, alternative relationship models, polyamory, non-monogamy, infidelity, mistrust, communication, and sexual issues.

Coaching & Consulting Services

 

Some people don’t want to engage in long term therapy but prefer to get more information or guidance on one specific issue. Coaching/consulting is appropriate if a client is simply looking for information or resources.  During the initial session we can decide if your concern would be best suited for consulting or therapeutic services. This service is available no matter what the location of the client as telehealth can be utilized.

We also offer professional consultation for those interested in other matters such as licensure, types of modalities, or other matters in which they’d like to speak to a member of our staff. The consulting fee is $50 for 30 minutes. 

Clinical Supervision & Continuing Ed Trainings

We have taken the necessary continuing education credits to be clinical supervisors that help other clinicians seeking licensure in Arizona. We have multiple supervisors approved with the AZ Board of Behavioral Health Examiners and we also provide monthly continuing education trainings for or staff and professionals in the community on a variety of topics.

 We offer KAP provider trainings. Find out more here.

Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy

 We now offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy on site in individual and group formats. Ketamine is prescribed and administered by a psychiatric nurse practitioner and your session will be lead by a therapist experienced in KAP and psychedelic integration. We’ve created a robust, supportive program that incorporates concepts from Somatic Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems therapy into our treatment model. Check out our KAP Ethics Pledge here.

We also work with clients already receiving ketamine treatments elsewhere for preparation and integration sessions. 

For clients already receiving KAP treatments, a drop-in integration group meets weekly on Wednesday mornings and we have a monthly community integration group as well. Please reach out to be added.

We also host provider trainings for medical providers and therapists looking to learn more about psychotherapeutic uses of Ketamine.

Our KAP team currently consists of Kate Kincaid, Amy Davis, Maureen Milazzo, Erica Saunders, Irene Mayfield, Erin Plattner, Dr. Janay Young, Dr. Dawn Bantel, Erin Archer and Alyssa Spungen. 

Psychedelic Integration

Working from a harm reduction perspective, we offer non-judgmental counseling and guidance to clients in developing healthier relationships with the tools they choose to work with. Psychedelic medicines are now being used for a variety of reasons, including trauma resolution, therapeutic and spiritual exploration, creative problem solving, and much more.

Many people have eye-opening and mind-expanding experiences using psychedelics, and without professional support in integrating new awarenesses, uncovered memories, previously hidden traumas as well as many of the gifts from these experiences can be forgotten or under-utilized.

We offer short term (6-8 sessions) therapy for integration.

Note: though we are seeing efforts to decriminalize them, most psychedelics are currently illegal and are not being used in psychotherapy outside of clinical trials. 

Dreamwork

~Dreamwork (individual and group facilitation; workshops and presentations) Dream sharing is an ancient practice not in regular use in our modern world. Dreams provide a means of connection, meaning, creative input, emotional processing, insight and guidance. To work with them is to cultivate a relationship with our inner wisdom, develop ourselves spiritually and to cultivate a deeper intimacy with ourselves, our beloveds and the universe. We do this by supplying you with the tools to bring the dream to life and to carry it with you so that you can see the benefits immediately. There are SO many tools we can use and we will find the ones that work for you. This is you becoming your own dream interpreter, healing your relationship to sleep and is also a great preparation for non-ordinary states of consciousness catalyzed by psychoactive substances. Individual or Group Dreamwork is not a replacement for therapy but is a compass which may point us towards what may need to be worked on in therapy. These sessions can be irregular, but in order to give you a basic outline for how to begin cultivating this relationship, 6 sessions are encouraged, plus a lifetime of commitment and inspiration of sharing your dreams with your community, and inviting your whole self to the table.   Schedule a session now. 

 

Distance Therapy

Online therapy is a growing trend in the mental health and medical field and it’s an especially good option during COVID19 so that treatment doesn’t have to be interrupted during these stressful and uncertain times. It is now considered a best practice in rural areas. We offer online distance therapy as well as distance coaching/consulting.

 

One-time Non Monogamy Consults

Because it is hard to find a therapist competent in Ethical Non-monogamy, our therapist Kate offers one time consults for people exploring opening their relationship or struggling with specific issues around polyamory and non-monogamy. 

 

Extended EMDR  Sessions

For clients experiences with EMDR and who are looking to take a deeper dive into their reprocessing, we now offer extended EMDR sessions.
